When the captured newspaper boss heard Zhong Feng's words, he knelt on the ground with a thud and shouted loudly: "Can't burn, can't burn!" This was originally the most famous literary society in Shandong, but in order to run a newspaper in this courtyard, I don't know how many favors it spent! ”

Zhong Feng saw that this person was dying and didn't know what to say or what not to do, he felt a little funny and laughed. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhong Feng laughed for a while, grabbed the cuffs of the lifter, and lifted him up.

"What's your name?"

"Qian Xuedu."

"Qian Xuedu, you spew blood every day, slandering the Duke of Jinguo who is bent on saving the country in the newspaper. The people of Shandong were deceived by you and were suspicious, are you not small? Do you know how many times this officer can kill you? ”

Qian Xue looked at Zhong Feng hesitantly, and only held back a sentence for a long time: "A gentleman does not scold people with words!" ”

A gentleman does not scold people with his words, which is the favorite sentence of civil officials and scholars in the late Ming Dynasty. Relying on this sentence, the civil officials and gentry of the Ming Dynasty spread rumors, slandered, and insulted, and dared to do anything. The matter of the officials pointing at the nose of the Son of Heaven and scolding is not once in the Chongzhen Dynasty.

In the eyes of these literati, it is okay to scold the Son of Heaven, but what is it to slander Li Zhi?

Zhong Feng swelled up with anger in his heart, sneered, and said: "Dog, you have the audacity to incite the people to slander the Guogong, I will punish you three clans!" ”

Zhong Feng waved his hand at the secret guard general flag beside him and said, "Arrest the father, brother, and son of this shameless man, and ask and kill them together tomorrow!" ”

Zhong Feng's guards all knew that Zhong Feng liked to kill people, and seeing that Zhong Feng had convicted the three clans of Qian Xuedu with death, several guards glanced at each other.

Hearing Zhong Feng's words of killing everything, Qian Xuedu knew that he was afraid. His face turned pale, and he trembled uncontrollably.

"Big... General..."

However, the soldiers of the Tiger Ben Division did not give him a chance to beg for mercy, and dragged him outside.

The Sanwang Daily newspaper office is a place where the Shandong gentry gather to slander Li Zhi, and its reputation is outstanding, and Zhong Feng is not ready to leave this building behind. With a wave of his hand, the soldiers rushed into the courtyard and lit fires everywhere, and soon the entire newspaper office was on fire.

The sound of crackling wood burning, the whole courtyard burst into flames. If it weren't for the fact that the courtyard was built with a two-meter-wide gap between the outer wall of the courtyard and the surrounding buildings, the fire would have spread to other buildings next to it.

After the fire, the Sanwang Daily newspaper that slandered Li Zhi for inciting the people no longer exists.

Zhong Feng clapped his hands, and turned to look at the soldiers' arrests. It took a day, with the help of the secret guards, 5,000 Tiger Ben soldiers went out to arrest them, and all 146 newspaper operators of the Three Kings Daily were captured. The soldiers locked up all the weeping literati in the compound of the Shandong Daily.

After the tiger division entered the city, none of the officials, officials, catchers and archers of the yamen in Jinan dared to go to the streets, and they hid in the yamen one by one and did not dare to move, and the whole city was temporarily in a state of anarchy. After Zhong Feng finished arresting people, he asked the soldiers to carry rifles on their backs and patrol the city in squads, while maintaining order and publicizing tomorrow's questioning:

"The Three Kings Daily slandered the Duke of Jin for inciting the people, and the crime was extremely heinous. More than 100 of them will be beheaded at the execution ground in Caishikou in the north of the city at noon tomorrow. Zealous people will be able to witness then! ”

"Tomorrow at noon, the Chengbei vegetable market will kill the traitor of the "Three Kings Daily", and the people will go to watch!"

After propaganda for an afternoon and an evening, when the execution was carried out at noon the next day, the people who watched the excitement were crowded outside the execution ground at the entrance of the vegetable market in the north of the city. This Jin Guogong Li Zhizhi has been scolded in the "Sanwang Daily" for more than half a month, and the people still think that these literati can scold like this for a lifetime. Unexpectedly, Jin Guogong came to Jinan to kill people, and there were hundreds of people in one killing. It's a big bustle, and you can't help but see it.

Zhong Feng stood on the execution platform, in front of more than 100 condemned prisoners, and took out the "Shandong Daily" of the day in front of the black crowd of onlookers. On the same day, the "Shandong Daily" made a special issue for the traitor who killed the "Three Kings Daily", and counted the shameless actions of the Three Kings Daily, and the crime deserved death. Although Zhong Feng has learned to read and write over the years, he is still not good at making generous statements, so he simply reads the articles of the commentators of the "Shandong Daily".

Zhong Feng shook his hand at the people, and the ten riflemen walked to the front of the execution ground and fired a shot into the sky. The people knew they were going to start killing and were quiet.

Zhong Feng nodded and read aloud to the newspaper:

"The people of Shandong! All these years! If there is no Jin Guogong, this country does not know how much it will be broken, I don't know how many people will be killed by the Tartars, I don't know how many people will be killed by the thieves..."

“... However, there are some villains, because the Duke of Jin Guo does not allow them to evade taxes and oppress the small people, so they regard the Duke of Jinguo, who saved the country, as an enemy. The Three Kings Daily is the forerunner of these villains! The traitors of the Three Kings Daily, without any bottom line and shame, slandered and slandered the Duke of Jinguo, and incited the people to oppose the Duke of Jinguo..."

“... The public court of Jinguo, Hirata Fu, and the last to profit are the people of the world. The Duke of Jinguo fought in the south and the north, and in the end it was the small people of the world who benefited. The traitor who slanders the Duke of Jinguo is the enemy of the people, and the evil is unforgivable! ”

Zhong Feng finished reading and waved his hand. Some veterans of the Tiger Benshi Division who were arranged in the crowd raised the newspaper in their hands, read it aloud, and repeated the article that Zhong Feng read, so that all the tens of thousands of people present could hear the reason for the execution.

After reading the newspaper, Zhong Feng waved his hand again and shouted: "The time has come, execution!" ”

Qian Xuedu, the leader of the newspaper, and his father, brother, and son were first escorted to the front of the execution ground. The people of the clan cried to tears, desperately kowtowing to Zhong Feng to seek a life. Qian Xuedu finally knew that she had fallen into a catastrophe at this time, spread out on the ground, peed her pants, and had no strength to speak.

However, it was too late for these men to say anything, and the soldiers of the Tiger Division stepped on their shoulders, pointed their rifles at the back of their heads, and pressed the trigger.

When the nitrocellulose propellant exploded, it did not produce white smoke, and the people only heard more than a dozen gunshots, and the back of Qian Xuedu's family blossomed, and they fell forward without saying a word, and all fell on the ground of the execution ground.

When the condemned prisoners in the back saw this bloody scene, their faces were colorless.

A tall literati with a scarf of talent looked at Zhong Feng angrily and shouted: "Li Thief destroys the ancestral system and is the enemy of the scholars in the world, and he will not die a good death!" You help the abuse, and the scholars of the world will not let you go! ”

This Xiucai knelt on the ground and moved a few steps forward, and was about to curse, but the soldiers who were executing were a little impatient. The soldier pinned him to the ground and shot him in the left chest.

Xiucai let out a heart-rending scream, and his whole body convulsed violently a few times, and he died in a pool of blood.

Zhong Feng sneered and waved his hand again.

Two hundred GIs walked up to the execution ground, aimed at the back of the heads of more than 100 condemned prisoners, and fired their rifles.

Blood flowers and blood mist erupted like a fountain of columns, staining the executed soldiers all blood-red. In the sound of gunshots like popping beans, more than 100 literati screamed and died on the execution ground.
